Archives from an old blog I used to write. A lot of those posts were valuable and well-travelled so I imported them into this site in 2021.
Welcome to This is Pi Day ….’s Artist Blog — Pi Art² — where I wrote about the tools, technologies and techniques I use to draw a weekly web comic.
Do you Like (Drawing) Web Comics?
Pi Art² was a companion site to This is Pi Day, an independent web comic about fatherhood, running, video games, science, art, independence, integrity, imagination and just generally … family adventure. It is created, written, illustrated, and promoted by me from a quiet suburb of a remote Canadian city called Edmonton, Alberta.
This site will slowly, week by week, start to build a small collection of videos, articles, and tutorials by the artist about the technology & tactics used to create an online web comic. I will cover topics such as drawing in Inkscape, file and art library management, running a social media channel and website, and finding inspiration.
